Why track the bankroll separately
When poker money mixes with rent or savings, session results feel more emotional than analytical. A dedicated bankroll line — and a tool that plots it — keeps decisions grounded in data.
Risk & stakes
Serious players often use rules of thumb about how large a bankroll should be relative to the games they play. Your tracker won't replace those rules, but it shows whether your results match the risk you think you're taking.
Trends over time
Short-term results vary. Charts and summaries help you see whether you are improving, breaking even, or need to adjust stakes or study — using the same session history you already log in the app.
Session log as feedback
Bankroll management is not only about the number on paper; it is about reacting to evidence. Regular session logs turn vague feelings into a chart you can discuss with a coach or study plan.
